Just to let people know, if anyone's watching this,   clicky,  it had its LPG conversion done by the cowboys that destroyed did mine, douglas motors in pemberton, wigan

there's no saying this one's as bad and it might run perfectly but I thought i'd mention it since he had it done about a month after mine and he's decided to sell aswell, cant be just a coincidence can it??

Will be interesting to see what happens to that.

Not sure how you can replace twin cats with a single without doing a huge bodge.

I also note the lack of engine bay piccies!

I've asked him about any engine bay/lpg pics, see if he responds  

[Andy B]

And there it was ...... gone  ..... already!

.. purely because the seller neglected to point out that it doesn't run on gas.

It'll be back.

Could've replied to my 2 questions first  

[ScottieMV6]

Wonder if it was ever on Road Wars???

[jereboam]

FWIW, it seems to have been relisted already...

[Danny]

if it was working properly he'd do a lot more in the advert to try to sell it,  more than just "economical on LPG"

MAAAAAAAJOR selling point if its working!!

Dear flood748,

hi the performance on gas is fine no problems at all, usually get about 180-200 miles on £30 of gas.

15-16.7p. / mile on gas. :-/

He's obviously more heavy footed than I, or it's not so great on gas after all. Mine's costing 12.5p on mixed driving and LPG is a bit more expensive here than Lancashire.

Crikey! That's a manual too, and mine's an auto.

Interestingly, looking at the engine bay photos, I'm sure I can see a hacked-about throttle body coolant pipe. I hope that's not the vapouriser feed.

The sealed valve box on the tank doesn't look too sealed to me either.

i don't know if i should be going to specsavers but wheres the LPG filler???

[Danny]

they've done the same f*** up that they did with mine (remember its the same company), they've took the coolant feed from the throttle body and ran it all around the world, and the filler cap can be seen just below the back number plate on the close-up shot of the back bumper

at least you could see the injectors on mine (on the 2nd attempt)
